Brookville Civic Club Getting Kids Hooked on Fishing

The Brookville Civic Club is making waves in the community by partnering with Brookville Fly & Bait to provide the first 100 Voluntary Youth Fishing Licenses for Mentored Youth Fishing Day on Saturday, March 28th.  This initiative encourages kids to get outdoors, experience the joys of fishing, and learn a new skill—all while giving back to local waters. In Pennsylvania, the Voluntary Youth Fishing License is more than just a pass to fish—it plays a crucial role in conservation efforts.  Each license triggers a federal reimbursement that helps fund conservation and protects local waterways.  A Mentored Youth Permit does not provide this same benefit.  By choosing the Voluntary Youth License, families are helping give back to the very waters their children will enjoy. As an added bonus, each youth who receives a free license through this program will be entered into a drawing for a gift certificate to Brookville Fly & Bait.  The drawing will be held on Friday, March 27th at 6:00pm. The Brookville Civic Club is proud to continue its mission of giving back to the community through initiatives like this.  Please note that this partnership applies only to the Voluntary Youth Fishing License obtained at Brookville Fly & Bait (441 Madison Avenue, Brookville, PA) and does not extend to other license types or locations. We encourage families to take advantage of this opportunity and introduce their kids to the joys of fishing.  For more information, visit BrookvilleCivicClub.wordpress.com.  To stay up to date on our events and programs, follow us on Facebook!

Love shows up in so many ways—through marriage, new relationships, lifelong friendships, family bonds, and even the relationship you have with yourself.
